Today, I give a lesson on a great Dane. No, He's not a dog, but he'd probably still bark at you.

Intro and outro song:

"Brandenburg Concerto No. 4 in G, Movement I (Allegro), BWV 1049" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)

    At the time it was considered rude to excuse yourself from the dining table, so Tycho died from a burst kidney.

    "Tycho Brahe looks like Jamie Hyneman's gay cousin." Jamie Hyneman looks like Jamie Hyneman's gay cousin.

    Isaac Newton: “if I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulder of giants” Tycho Bruh: I stand on dwarfs

    Fun fact: someone once sent him a dog, and when another noble kicked said dog he lost his fucking mind and threw the noble out of his observatory, which eventually led to his ruin.

    If Jepp committed a crime wouldn't that make him a Small Medium at Large?

    you forgot : he was an alchemist he had made an elixir and gave it to a king (cannot remember which king honestly) claiming it was a cure for all epidemics that were around (did it work? we'll never know) he was bffs with the Danish King since the King was 12 and was also gifted a small island by him which is where he lived and had a castle (with his family and Jepp) when the king died, his replacement king disliked Tycho and his parties and cut the funding so Tycho, pissed, moved to Czechia where he met Kepler They became partners but when Kepler asked Tycho for some notes Tycho was like no they're mine Shortly after Tycho died and somehow his notes ended up in Kepler's hands
  • He made some of the most accurate astronomical observations. It is believed that he was able to do that because he had the ability to take off his nose and aline perfectly his eyes with the telescope lenses.

    Tyco bruh Cause of death: held his pee for too long.
  • @silveryear481
    ah, yes, I'm honored that my ancestor gets to be featured on this honored show. And also, as a matter of fact, he was greatly saddened by the unfortunate death of his elk.
  • As a danish person i am very grateful for this video. By far the best Danish history I’ve ever heard.
  • @joekennedy4093
    Are we not even talking about his affair with the Queen Mother of Denmark?

    Remember, kids: What separates an Eccentric and a Babbling lunatic is how rich they are.
  • I saw this pop up in my recommendation feed and thought it was a new video. Alas, my hope has been crushed.

    The best part is that we are learning about him and school and they didn't tell us anything about this lol
